POTA Treehouse question

[Fire Marshal Bill]

Can anyone tell me the diameter and length of the dowels that support the legs on the treehouse? I got a loose playset that was missing them. I'm assuming they are nothing special and could be easily made from dowel rod stock from a hobby store or Home Depot. Correct?

Thanks!

I can measure them when I get home if nobody has an answer by then. Yes, they are nothing special and any wooden rod would work fine.

Ok, i would appreciate it.

My POTA treehouse is packed away and not easily accessible,but i did have some pieces to an AJ jungle house handy and there was one leg support.For some reason i thought the support to the POTA treehouse was stained and simply a 1/4 dowel.The AJ one is unstained and stepped down to 1/4 inch on the ends.I may just be remembering wrong.Anyway the dowel is 12 inches long and 1/4 diameter that goes into the leg. So a 1/4 inch dowel rod should work.

I completely forgot about this. Sorry! Yeah, the POTA dowels do not have the smaller diameter on the ends. It's just a plain dowel. I'll try to remember to take some pics of one tonight

Thanks for the info guys, i was hoping it was as simple as grabbing some 1/4" dowel and cutting it to size.
